The multi voucher.
One voucher for several purposes, spent at any shop Bounou has cleared for a kind other than meal. It is never a meal voucher.
What it is
A single voucher that works across the kinds other than meal: service, work clothing, leisure and incentive.
- It is never a meal voucher: a shop cleared for meal alone does not take it.
- Bounou does not clear a shop for it; it follows the shop's other clearances.
Who buys it
Employers, for their staff.
- An employer orders it in the Bounou console and receives a purchase order and an invoice.
- Bounou's commission is added on top of the face value and invoiced. The rate is in your quote and your contract before you sign.
Where it is spent
At any shop Bounou has cleared for at least one kind other than meal.
- The map shows every shop and the vouchers it accepts, and the app shows a member how much of their value works at a shop before they walk in.
How a member receives and spends it
The employer assigns the vouchers, and they arrive in the member's Bounou account at once.
- At the counter, the member shows a code that lives 90 seconds and says only who they are.
- The shop scans it and enters the amount; the member approves that amount on their own phone.
- If the vouchers usable there do not cover the bill, the shop charges what they cover and the member pays the rest the usual way.
Tax and social contributions
The multi voucher has no relief of its own: it is not restricted to any purpose the decree lists. For the employee it is salary — taxed for income tax and contributed on to the CNSS like pay. For the employer it is a staff cost, like salary.
Every voucher is valid for one year from the day it is issued, and its expiry date is shown wherever it is shown; value still unused on that date stays with Bounou. Bounou is not a bank and not a payment institution.
